Can digital galleries provide a space for community healing?
In short: When Singapore's ArtScience Museum closed its physical doors during lockdown, it found a new way to connect. This conversation explores how virtual programming can uplift marginalized voices and investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In this recorded conversation from June 17, 2020, curator Honor Harger discusses how the ArtScience Museum transitioned to digital engagement. Through the 'ArtScience at Home' program, the museum utilized streamed talks, workshops, and performances to maintain a connection with visitors. These online initiatives were designed to investigate the landscape of the COVID-19 pandemic and provide a platform for marginalized voices.
